ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS (See Fig. 1 and 2)
Base and pole
1.Slide the main pole (A) on the cross base (B), making sure the alignment of four holes. Then use four cross base screws (C) to lock them together.
2.Slide the stand base sheath (D) into the main pole.
3.Unscrew the pole extension screw (E) around the top of the main pole and raise the chrome extension pole (F) to its full height. Retighten the pole extension screw.
4.Take the fan head assembly (G), slacken the fixing screw (H) and insert the neck of the fan head assembly onto the pole.
Retighten the fixing screw.
Head and guard
5.Unscrew the fan blade securing screw (I).
NOTE: THIS SCREW HAS LEFT HANDED THREAD AND THEREFORE IS REMOVED BY TURNING CLOCKWISE. Unscrew the rear grill mounting nut (J).
6.Position the rear grill (K) over the motor shaft (L) making sure the notches (M), 2 at the top and 1 at the bottom of the rear grill, fit over the corresponding prongs (N) on the motor housing.
7.Please make sure the rear grill fits securely against the motor housing before securing the rear grill in its place using the rear grill mounting nut (J). Turn this nut clockwise and tighten firmly.
8.Slide the fan blade (O) with the hollowed interior of the blade facing toward the rear grill, firmly onto the motor shaft. The top of the motor shaft should lie even with the centre of the fan blade.
9.Now use the securing screw (I) to lock the blade into place. NOTE: THIS SCREW HAS A LEFT HANDED THREAD AND THEREFORE TIGHTENS ANTICLOCKWISE. Ensure the screw is tight but do not overtighten.
10.Centre the front grill (P) by aligning the Bionaire logo on the logo plate so that it is horizontal and parallel with the floor. Then, holding the front grill against the rear grill, hook the top of the grill ring over the to of the rear grill. Gently push the two parts of the grill together until the clips around the
grill ring snap into position, holding the grill together. The grill ring must fit evenly around the front and rear grills. If it does not, remove the front grill and check the alignment of the ring on the front grill.
11.Secure the guard using the screw (Q), washer (R) and clip (S) by inserting the screw, from the front, through the hole in the bottom of the guard ring. From the back, put the washer and clip, which has a threaded hole, onto the screw, ensuring the clip is the correct way to fit into the recess on the fan ring. Tighten the screw fully but do not overtighten.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
